How do I share maps and pictures with players during a session?

Drop the image or map in the images folder of the campaign you are running. On the FG desktop click the images button and find the image you dropped in the folder in the list. Click it to open it. Once it is open then right click on the map and select share to share the image or map.

Note the players will see everything on the map so if you don't want them to see everything then before you share, mask the map first.

Or if you want to share an image to one player, just drag the icon for the image to the player's portrait and it will only load for them. Took me a while to realize that..

And notes too. And text boxes in Storys.

Oh my! I Didn't know that one (the one with the portrait).

Just an FYI if you want to recenter the map for one person just re-drop the shortcut on the PC's portrait. This is less important now that players can manipulate the map themselves but if they ask for a recenter that's how you do it.
